Spinning again

In the end of March I attended my first spinning retreat here in Trondheim, and both before and after, I was hooked on spinning. As a result, I soaked and "thwacked" three skeins a couple of weekes ago, and I'm pretty happy with all of them.

To the left is about 466 metres of two-plied goodnes from IntoTheWhirled, Superwash merino called "Take it to the bridge". Then we have 340 metres of chain plied "Sailors Delight" from Cattail Knits, which is 50% Superwash merino, 25% bamboo and 25% silk. The rainbow to the right is Woolgatherings mixed BFL, 282 metres. The "colourway" name is BFLM08201301. This one really is also chain plied, and really floofed up after the soaking.

Like usual, I don't have any plans for these, they will marinate in the stash for a while, until I figure out what I want to use them for.
